commercial real estate for non-profit Hi
I am working for a non-profit organization and we were wanting to try and get some office space rented to us either as a donation/free or way below market value while it is vacant (until someone else wants to lease it). We have the owner of a property interested, but he is wanting a tax deduction for the deal. I was hoping you could point me to a tax deduction that he could get for donating the property for a short time period (~6months) or renting it to us at below market value. The owner's accountant has said that there isn't a tax deduction for that, but we have had other people tell us that there is. Please let me know whether or not there is a tax deduction that he can claim for this (anything please!) and where it can be found in IRS publications. Thanks |
